Have you been able to find non-manufacturer chargers with a ground connection?
Until now, the only USB-C chargers that I've seen with that are Apple, DELL, and HP (haven't come in contact with Lenovo, etc).
I was looking to buy a second USB-C charger for my HP laptop, but since it has a metal case, the ground connection is a must for me.
- amelius 4y agoLook for a medical-grade power supply. It makes the ground connection less important.
- vladvasiliu 4y agoAre those actually cheaper or easier to come by than manufacturer-branded options? I actually found an HP charger on Amazon, and it even had a USB-A port, which I've found neat. But with all the horror stories about counterfeits and Amazon stock comingling, and what with my wish to not burn down my house, I didn't buy it.
- GravitasFailure 4y agoI've never seen a three prong charger for USB C. They probably exist, somewhere, but consumer electronics like that being grounded doesn't seem common.
- nickflood 4y agoJust get a Dell charger, they are high quality and relatively cheap.
